Re: Sony Bravia KDL-46W5500 replaced T-con still the same

Thanks for all your answer...

The ribbons around the lcd have all been tested and do not show any change when pressured.

What is strange is how it takes a bit more of 5 minutes after the TV is turned on for the lcd to show the symptoms. At the beginning the bad image starts on the right side and slowly appear on all the frame. If contrast and luminosity is set to the minimum, then the image remains good.

Hi guys,

I've been trying to troubleshoot my dad's Bravia (I'm in Australia and he is in France... skype is handy!).

Here are a couple of shots of the problem. TV is 5 years old. When first switched on it looks normal, then 5 mn later the bad picture occurs. I made him run a self test which showed a t-con error. So ordered a new one and now selft test shows no problem with the T-con but image is still bad.

We tried the freezing method with no result, we check all the connectors, rubbons, including the one soldered on the lcd and no change. We blow hot...
